Description
The Borderkind
Book Two of THE VEIL
By Christopher Golden
Published by Haverhill House Publishing
For centuries they lived amongst us. The frightful and wondrous, the angelic and bloodthirsty. Living in a reality just beyond the Veil, humanity’s myths and legends are caught in a struggle for their very survival — against hunters far more powerful than they are.
Into this struggle has stepped a New England lawyer who once wanted to be an actor — a man who both longs for the mortal woman he was to marry and is desperate to rescue the sister who’s been taken hostage. Neither hero nor warrior, Oliver Bascombe now finds himself brandishing a magical sword, walking in the company of a woman who sometimes appears as a fox and a man made of pure ice, and dueling with albino giants and winged killers. For in the world of the Borderkind—and the realms that exist beyond it — Oliver is discovering just how vulnerable are humankind’s myths, the dire consequences of their extinction, and the reason he was chosen to save them .…

Praise for The Borderkind:
“I just finished The Borderkind. It was definately a great followup in The Veil trilogy. I cant wait for the final chapter to see how everything turns out. Theres some great battles, new scary enemies. The only real criticism I have, is that I hate cliff-hanger endings. Unfortunately, you kind of need one in the middle of a trilogy.”
— David Manning
“Christopher Golden is going to strike gold with this superior dark fantasy sequel that can stand on its own but is enhanced by reading the equally superb first tale. The story line is action-packed and stars a real American hero and a strong support cast from both sides of the veil. However, the key to this delightful saga is the belief that the Two Kingdoms and its fantasy creatures are not just plausible they are real.”
